187 Rue Principale

187 Rue Principale

My husband Tom and I recently spent a delightful evening enjoying French-inspired cuisine at 187 Rue Principale in charming downtown Emmaus. This unique spot serves brunch during the day; at night, it transforms into a cozy bistro that serves intimate dinners. In true French fashion, tipping is not allowed—employees are paid a fair wage.  Owner Mitzi Cullen celebrated the ... »

Stoke

Stoke

Stoke Coal Fire Pizza and Bar recently celebrated its first anniversary on Centre Square. This unique addition to the downtown Easton dining scene has developed a strong following in its short tenure and it’s easy to see why. The chic surroundings and hospitable people make it easy on the eyes, friendly to the senses, and pleasant to the taste buds. The tables were filled ... »

CENTRO

CENTRO

CENTRO recently celebrated its first anniversary as an exciting addition to the downtown Allentown dining scene. There is so much to like about CENTRO. The interior of this chic spot is very appealing and beautifully appointed—starting at the unique quartz bar where you may enjoy one of their specialty drinks with friends; to the adjacent semi-circular booths and intimate ... »

Glasbern Inn

Glasbern Inn

Located a few miles off Route 100 North, nestled among the rolling hills in Fogelsville is Glasbern Inn, a multifaceted historical inn situated on over 130 acres of working farmland. Dreams of the inn began in 1983 when Al and Beth Granger purchased 16 acres of rustic farmland and “tired” old buildings. With comprehensive renovations and additional land purchases over time... »

Joey G’s Italian Kitchen

Joey G’s Italian Kitchen

There is a new kid on the block or, I should say, on Grape Street. Joey Grisafi (owner of Corked Wine Bar in Bethlehem) opened Joey G’s Italian Kitchen in June. Joey G’s is very casual but a big step up from a walk-in pizzeria where Joey says you will find “No Bada, No Bing – just great Italian food”. The aroma of garlic whets your appetite as soon as you walk in the door ... »

Sugar Hill Jazz Fest

Sugar Hill Jazz House

It’s hard to believe that The Sugar Hill Jazz House has only been open a few months. It already has an amazing following that only promises to get better. Tom and I stopped in a couple of weeks ago for dinner on a Friday night. The place was filling up when we arrived at 6:30. We sat at the unique, piano key motif bar for a drink and listened to some pretty special piano a... »

Social Still

Social Still

Social Still opened around a year and a half ago in a glorious old bank building dating back to 1919. Back then it was home to Gosztonyi Savings and Trust which catered to Eastern European immigrants who worked at Bethlehem Steel. The bank was run by a woman who became Pennsylvania’s first female bank president. Social Still’s owners Elaine Pivinski and Adam Flatt (of Fran... »

Mueller's

Mueller’s General Store & Kitchen

It’s a beautiful summer day so hop in your car, on your bike or in your kayak and travel about ten miles south from Easton on Rt. 611 to Mueller’s General Store and Kitchen. This iconic landmark, just below Raubsville, has been a part of the Delaware River landscape for nearly a half century. During that time, Mueller’s has worn many hats and has faithfully served the loca... »

Ye Olde Spring Valley Tavern

Ye Olde Spring Valley Tavern

The Spring Valley Inn was one of the popular go-to places when we first moved to the Lehigh Valley but it had been many years since I visited what is now called Ye Olde Spring Valley Tavern. Owners Warren and Donna Walters as well as Frank and Kim McCartney reopened the tavern in 2014, changing the name but maintaining much of the old charm. The outside of the stone buildi... »

Smoked Tuna Tartar - Saranda's On Broadway

Saranda’s On Broadway

Saranda’s on Broadway is located in one of Bethlehem’s oldest buildings. Dating back to 1745, this marvelous building has been completely restored keeping much of the original structure intact to maintain the ambiance. Original beams and stone walls are exposed in the bar area accented by Thomas Edison lighting. There were renovations around 1860 when much of the dining ar... »
